Chapter 410 Dominating! Cecelia Reclaims Songo Group “Seyben Group!”

“Seyben…”

The crowd uttered the name of the acquiring party, leaving Chris shocked as he gazed at Cecelia.

“Cecelia, how dare you kick me when I’m down!”

Chris realized, “You orchestrated everything. Warda and Mizey’s incidents were just a smokescreen to divide the Songo family.

“Behind the scenes, you fanned the flames, spread rumors, and then acquired Songo Group’s shares at a rock-bottom price. You’re truly devious…”

Chris regretted not being more cautious of Cecelia, which led to this grave mistake.

Snap!

Cecelia suddenly slammed the table, silencing the room. Her icy stare swept across the entire room, ending with Chris.

“Mr. Songo! Let’s stick to the facts! Your children committed crimes first, leading to turmoil within Songo Group. What’s that got to do with me?

“Great changes are sure to come with time, and divisions are inevitable in large families like the Songo family.

“As for Seyben’s acquisition of the shares, it’s merely a business maneuver. How has it turned into ‘kicking you when you’re down’ and being devious in your eyes?

“Even without Seyben’s acquisition, other groups would have meddled. Do you truly believe that the bonds between your siblings are unbreakable?

“Everyone pushes when the wall falls, and the monkeys scatter when the tree falls. Songo family is facing turbulent times, and everyone is trying to protect themselves and maximize their legal interests.

Selling shares is the most natural choice.

“Do you want everyone to wait until their shares become worthless?”

Cecelia’s questions left Chris speechless.

He could only glare at her, his chest heaving, unable to utter a word.

Cecelia slowly rose, placing her hands on the table, her lips curled with cold determination.

“Mr. Songo, now you should understand that your so-called 51% ownership structure within the Songo family no longer exists. Your 20% is what the Songo family holds now.

“Seyben Group takes 51% now, and Songo Group’s absolute control is now in my hands.”

Chris couldn’t believe it. “How could you possibly have 51%? Even if all of their shares were transferred to you, you still couldn’t reach 51%!”

“Mr. Songo, you still don’t believe it!” Cecelia directly ordered, “Bring in the lawyers!”

Soon, a team of lawyers representing Seyben Group, led by Mr. King, entered the room. Mr. King opened a document and made an announcement.

“We are from the First Law Firm of Porema, representing Ms. Cecelia Linsey, the controlling shareholder of Seyben Group. We are here to announce Seyben Group’s shareholding in Songo Group. The accumulated share percentage is 51.89%, establishing an absolute controlling stake.

Announcement complete.”

After Mr. King finished reading, he handed a copy of the document to Chris. “Mr. Songo, please take a look.”

Taking the document and seeing the legally binding information, Chris’s hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

“Impossible… This can’t be…”

Wide-eyed, he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

Cecelia raised her chin slightly and began to speak, “I believe all the shareholders have heard clearly.

Songo Group’s ownership has now changed. So, let’s discuss whether the LC Group’s acquisition proposal can pass. We will conduct an on-site vote.”

“I object!”

Chris slammed the document onto the table and rebuked it.

“Objection is overruled,”

Cecelia directly rejected his objection.

Other minority shareholders raised their hands in favor one by one. “I agree!”

“I agree too!”

“Agree!”

…

Except for non-shareholders and Chris, all the other shareholders voted in favor. Cecelia, too, raised her hand and said, “I agree as well! Now, I declare the vote passed.”

Cecelia looked at Chris, who had an extremely embarrassed expression, and the real blow was yet to come.

“Very well! The acquisition proposal from LC has passed successfully. Next, I will arrange a meeting with the LC team for the transition.

“Today, while all the shareholders are present, we have another voting activity. I propose the removal of all of Chris Songo’s internal roles and rights within the group!”

Unexpectedly, Cecelia was going all out, and Chris clenched his fists in anger. “Cecelia, I acknowledge you’re younger, so I won’t argue with you, but how can you remove me? I am the rightful heir of the Songo family! No one has the authority to take away my power!”

“Heh, the rightful heir? Mr. Songo, isn’t your face hurting when you say that?”

Cecelia sneered, “Do you truly believe that I, as the inheritor of the Songo Dyehouse, am just a decoration? You think that after years of your management, Songo Group is automatically yours?

“Cecelia, I know you are the rightful heir of the Dyehouse, but you already have it. You can inherit it, but why do you also want to encroach upon Songo Group?

“Songo Group has expanded to its current scale through the hard work of my father and me. After my father retired, I took over as the legal representative of Songo Group.

“No matter what tricks you play, I won’t relinquish Songo Group!”

Chris was determined to protect the last line of defense for the Songo family, despite Cecelia’s scheming.

Cecelia stepped forward from her seat, facing Chris directly and saying, “My decision is not about whether you approve of it. I’m gonna reclaim everything in the name of the rightful inheritor of the Songo family!”

Cecelia walked towards the main chair, standing face to face with Chris. While she was smaller in stature, her presence dwarfed him entirely.

“My decision might not sit well with you, but I’ll make you accept it!”

With a gesture from Cecelia, Adam displayed a projection.

On the large projection screen, part of the Songo family’s genealogy was listed.

“Take a look! This is the current Songo family tree, starting from our ancestor, Edmond. He had a son and a daughter.

“His son, Edmond, and his daughter, Jessie. Jackson’s son is Grandpa Alfred. Moving on to the descendants in your respective branches, Chris, you’re the eldest son of the main branch, and Warda is the eldest grandson.

“Now, look at Jessie. She had a daughter named Cassie, who was my grandmother. She was supposed to inherit Songo Dyehouse but has already passed away.

“According to inheritance law, you do seem to have the right to inherit Songo Group.”

As Cecelia spoke, she took a deep breath and continued, “But-do you really have the right to inherit it?”

“Cecelia, what are you trying to say? Stop playing mind games here!”

Chris’s face was as stiff as corroded iron, and he spoke with deep anger.

“What I’m saying is that the Songo family tree you all have seen, the one publicly disclosed by Songo Group, is fake!”

Cecelia exposed the ugly façade of the Songo family, saying, “Now, I’ll show you what the real Songo family tree looks like.”

As she finished speaking, the content on the large screen changed once more.
